Hasta que los rusos lanzaron el Sputnik, no entendimos la importancia de la #educación Jerome K Bruner (1915-2016)
Nuestro evento del miércoles 8 de Junio en Centro Diseño en DF examinó en detalle algunas de las relaciones posibles que pueden establecerse entre aprendizaje, espacio y tecnología. ¿Cómo se provocan entre si los tres lados de este triángulo hipercomplejo? se preguntaba el documento de convocatoria.
En 1938, Antonin Artaud described the illusory nature of characters and objects in the theatre as «la réalité virtuelle» in a collection of essays, Le Théâtre et son double . The English translation of this book, published in 1958 as The Theater and its Double,[1] is the earliest published use of the term «virtual reality».
The term «artificial reality«, coined by Myron Krueger, has been in use since the 1970s.
Hay innumerables predicciones acerca de lo que se viene (o vendría), los futuristas abundan, las promesas son infinitas, enormes instituciones desde la Rand Corporation hasta el Stanford Research International, o la propia compañia Shell creadora de la metodogía de los escenarios, se dedican a estos menesteres desde hace ya mas de medio siglo. Y en sus menúes incluyen el día en que los robots inteligentes pueblen la tierra. Sin embargo el momento del advenimiento de las Inteligencias Sintéticas siempre se corre hacia la derecha, a 30 o 50 años vista. Y cada vez que llegamos allí empezamos a contar de nuevo.
¿Se mantendrá indefinidamente esta carrera del gato contra el ratón?, ¿de la expectativa contra la amenaza?; ¿del deseo contra la realidad?
the colourful and imaginative interior design for the Swedish Vittra schools has become famous around the world. Rosan Bosch is also widely renowned for her playful and unconventional design solutions created for a range of different customers such as LEGO, Copenhagen University, as well as the Danish Government. Currently Rosan Bosch Studio is working on a large school project for the Sheikh Zayed Academy in Abu Dhabi.
Doug Lenat writes programs that are creative: they think up new mathematical conjectures, predict terrorist plots, and propose unsuspected disease pathways. Unlike other machine learning algorithms, his programs are based on Sherlock-Holmes-style reasoning, not statistics. A former computer science professor at Stanford, Doug and his CYC.com team are now hard at work here in Austin, trying to give computers the one thing they need most: common sense.
Two hundred million years ago, our mammal ancestors developed a new brain feature: the neocortex. This stamp-sized piece of tissue (wrapped around a brain the size of a walnut) is the key to what humanity has become. Now, futurist Ray Kurzweil suggests, we should get ready for the next big leap in brain power, as we tap into the computing power in the cloud.
Is it Mozart or Professor David Cope? Many of the world’s experts can’t tell. See how this music professor uses his own software to make beautiful music.
The real challenge here is not designing and programming robots to beat us at things, but instead to work with us. The idea of us all being replaced by robots is disturbing to most people, and would require a total redesign of society without precedent. We are moving toward a society where robots will play a bigger role than ever, there’s no doubt about that: the issue here is how it happens and what comes later. Those are questions that will take time to answer. What kinds of society we live in, wealth distribution, the role of humans, the development of society, these are the key questions. But the simple truth is that technological development cannot be stopped. Enrique DansNow a machine can beat a human at Go, what next?
Una de las grandes tensiones en la instalación de la democracia occidental (aparte de saber si se compatible con el capitalismo sea dicho de paso, pequeño intríngulis ) es poder conciliar la libertad con la igualdad. Se han escrito toneladas de bibliotecas sobre estos temas y seguimos en ayunas.
Como siempre los dipolos dividen las opiniones y resulta dificil argumentar en forma definitiva a favor de una opción o de la otra.
En esta próxima sesión de #dipolosmimaguen debatiremos si son bienvenidos (o no) los coches autónomos. Aunque en América Latina parecen una fantasía pronto una decena de estados en USA aprobará su existencia,
Cybathlon 2016-The Push Continues to Merge the Iron & Clay
La reflexión que no encarna en discusiones sobre materialidad corre el riesgo de volarse demasiado, y caer en manos de intelectuales farragosos que no es nuestro caso.
A primera vista las siguientes encarnaciones (teoría incorporada) podrían srevir para ilustrat en detalle la viabilidad (o no ) de las superinteligencias
– Autómatas (que van de los robots hasta los coches autónomos)
– Pildoras Inteligentes (una buena metáfora es la opción que debe tomar Neo , la azul o la roja ) para lidiar/ignorar con la realidad
– VR (lentes realidad virtual)
En USA están enloquecidos con los algoritmos, los robots, la analítica, las redes sociales, pero también hay mucha literatura con posturas en criticas.
As artificial intelligence advances, it may very well use the programmable ethics settings found in self-driving cars as a platform to build upon
If we determined today that favoring “quantity of lives” is the sole rule to follow for self-driving cars, for example, a much more developed, Skynet-esque AI of the future might calculate that citizens of industrialized countries are making the world uninhabitable for a majority of people and their many generations of offspring. Ethically, that AI could justify eradicating a large swath of the population so that an even larger percent can live.
